A 10-story apartment tower with 430 beds, called The Rise, is under
construction in Columbia. The Columbia Daily Tribune reports it is advertising
that it will pay freshmen to break the dorm contract, saying living in the dorms
is not a requirement.
Leasing agent James Holloway says a few freshmen have already accepted the
offer.
Campus spokesman Christian Basi says first-time students are generally
required to live in dorms, with some exceptions.
